I think LSU and OSU are in regardless of what happens. What get's interesting is if they lose next weekend. So looking ahead (in my opinion):
Ohio State - in regardless
LSU - in regardless
Clemson - in with a win. I'd say 50/50 if they lose
After that it gets interesting.
Wisconsin - I don't see them making it even if they win this weekend.
Utah/Oklahoma/Baylor - one of them is in if they win, and LSU wins.
I think this week OU will jump ahead of Utah in the rankings but it is really close between OU, Utah, and Baylor. OU/Baylor have a slight advantage as they are both highly ranked and will play each other this weekend -- the winner will get another quality win on their resume. Utah is hurt somewhat by Oregon's loss and subsequent drop in the rankings. Even if they beat Oregon it may not be enough.
Georgia has the biggest chance of creating chaos if they win. Hard to leave them out if they win and hard to drop LSU out even if they lose. Everyone outside the SEC is likely rooting for LSU to blow them out this weekend.
